Chapter 412: Chapter 412

Gu Jiulian was originally sleeping, but felt a stomach ache in the middle of the night.

She got up and went to the outhouse. Just as she was pulling up her pants, she was pinned inside the outhouse.

"Mmm mmm..." Who are you? What are you doing?

"Jiujiu, don’t you know who I am?" Mu Danian said as his hand wandered over Gu Jiulian’s body.

Mu Danian was experienced and knew which spots of a woman’s body were sensitive. A few touches and Gu Jiulian went limp in Mu Danian’s arms.

Mu Danian released Gu Jiulian’s hand, bringing his mouth close to hers.

With his stinky breath drawing near, Gu Jiulian felt like she was being nuzzled by a pig.

But Mu Danian’s technique surpassed that of the deadbeat man at her home.

Gu Jiulian wasn’t some virtuous maiden, so when she felt it, she went with it!

The two of them fumbled around in the outhouse, their clothes completely removed.

In the end, Mu Danian embraced Gu Jiulian and they finished their first time in the outhouse. Both were satisfied with the results, though the process left much to be desired.

After all, the outhouse was a stinky place.

Afterwards, Gu Jiulian lay in Mu Danian’s arms, unwilling to get up.

Mu Danian spoke sweetly. "Sister-in-law, you’re the most captivating woman I’ve met."

Gu Jiulian was ten years older than Mu Danian. Being praised by him made her secretly delighted, though she pretended to be modest.

"You cheeky boy, always trying to fool me. I’m ignoring you."

Gu Jiulian wasn’t considered pretty, much less so than Chen Hong.

Her figure wasn’t as good as Chen Hong’s either.

But she had a certain toughness that Chen Hong lacked, which Mu Danian liked a lot.

He held Gu Jiulian’s soft body and caressed it for a while, but suddenly felt a bit exhausted.

He felt as if all his strength had been drained.

Damn, this woman was formidable.

The night with the big moon, the Mu Family’s third branch was still brightly lit.

Everyone was busy waiting for Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng in Mu Dashan’s room.

A while ago, Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng had taken Liu Zian back to Liu Family Village, borrowing a horse from the village and using the dilapidated cart given by Zhuangzi’s mother from Dahuo Village.

Lu Yuanfeng had repaired it, replacing the planks, so it should be a new cart now.

Just at dusk, the three of them reached the outskirts of Liu Family Village.

The two elders of the Liu Family were actually waiting at the entrance to the village for Liu Zian.

As soon as Lu Yuanfeng stopped the cart, the two elders approached. Upon seeing Liu Zian, the weight on their minds was lifted.

Liu Zian jumped off the cart and introduced Mu Shuangshuang to his parents.

"Dad, Mom, this is Shuangshuang, the one who helped me earn travel expenses."

Mr. Liu naturally expressed his gratitude, insisting on inviting Mu Shuangshuang into the village for some refreshments.

"Uncle Liu, I won’t go in. My home is quite far from here. If I don’t leave early, I won’t be home until midnight." Mu Shuangshuang waved her hand.

"Then stay at our place! We have an extra kang," said Mrs. Liu from the Song Family.

"Yeah, Shuangshuang, come to our place for a look. Who knows when we’ll meet again."

This time, Liu Zian was really preparing to head to Qianzhou Prefecture.

He wasn’t Mu Dade and couldn’t afford a fast ride, so he had to rent a cheaper ox cart to Qianzhou Prefecture, which would take over half a month. He would probably arrive in early August.

When Mu Shuangshuang didn’t say anything, Liu Zian added, "With Fengzi going with you, it’s safer to return together tomorrow. You can sleep with my mom, so you won’t be alone."

Lu Yuanfeng stood beside the horse without saying a word, but Shuangshuang’s answer was his answer.

"Liu Zian, if fate allows, we’ll meet again. Take this!" Mu Shuangshuang said, grabbing Liu Zian’s hand and placing two taels (two hundred coins) of silver in his palm.

"Shuangshuang, what are you doing?" Liu Zian panicked. They had agreed she wouldn’t pay him back.

But Mu Shuangshuang quickly jumped onto Lu Yuanfeng’s cart.

"Fengzi, let’s go quickly!"

Following orders, Lu Yuanfeng flicked the whip in his hand, and the cart picked up speed, soon disappearing from sight.

Liu Zian wanted to chase after them but couldn’t.

It was Liu Zian’s mother from the Song Family who comforted him.

"Anzi, if the girl doesn’t want to stay at our place, then let it be!"

"Yes, Anzi, you’re going to take the imperial exams, you shouldn’t spend time thinking about this. Focus on studying, and don’t let your parents handle anything for you. If you pass, there will be hope for our family."

Previously, Liu Zian always felt motivated upon hearing this.

But tonight, he felt exceedingly agitated. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮·𝙣𝙚𝙩

A mother knows her son well, and Mrs. Liu realized her offhand suggestion to have the girl stay might have struck a chord with him.

It seemed he had unusual feelings for that girl.

On the way back, Mrs. Liu advised Liu Zian, "Zian, you’re at a crucial stage in your life, don’t think about anything else!"

"Just remember to focus on your exams. As for marriage and children, I will arrange everything for you in the future and find you a suitable daughter of a wealthy family, ensuring you don’t disgrace our Liu Family."

"Mom, what do you mean by suitable match? Our family are farmers, who could we possibly match with? Besides, I already have someone in mind. No need for you to worry!"

"Someone? Are you talking about that girl just now?"

"No way, mom disagrees. She’s just a country bumpkin, how could she be good enough for you!" Mrs. Liu shook her head, immediately dismissing Mu Shuangshuang.

"Mom, why are you speaking so harshly? If it wasn’t for Shuangshuang, your son wouldn’t even have travel expenses for the exam, and I’m currently living worse than her."

"Silly son, what are you saying? What do you mean she helped you? You have skills, you were the one who painted those pictures. If anything, that girl benefited from you."

Liu Zian recounted the events on the street that day for Mrs. Liu.

He didn’t mention Shuangshuang taking money, but Mrs. Liu was convinced Mu Shuangshuang was trying to take advantage of Liu Zian.

However, she never voiced this opinion to Liu Zian.

She believed her son was naive and easy to deceive.

"Mom, I know my own limitations. Don’t flatter your son, he can’t afford it!"

After speaking, Liu Zian walked away alone.

Leaving Mrs. Liu and Mr. Liu behind.

"His dad, look at Anzi, has he been led astray by that girl? He never dared defy me before!" Mrs. Liu said, her voice tinged with tears.

"Enough, don’t you know Zian’s character? That girl holds a significant place in his heart. By speaking ill of her, aren’t you just slapping Zian in the face?"

Mr. Liu was still reasonable, explaining the situation clearly to Mrs. Liu.

But she remained steadfast in her stance.

"I don’t care, I won’t let that country girl set foot in our house!"
